Adoption Agreement, Adoption Fee required on this Turtle.
About About Turtle Time Sanctuary
About Our Shelter...We provide a home for pet turtles the owners can no longer keep, we adopt out when possible, and we provide educational tours to the public.
Come Meet Our Pets...call for appointment
Our Adoption Process...ABOUT TURTLE TIME SANCTUARY ADOPTION POLICY
A person or family who wishes to adopt from About Turtle Time is willing to research the species they prefer to adopt prior to making application. An applicant needs to be open to suggestions on husbandry and refrain from using pesticides or other toxic chemicals in the turtle yard. The applicant should understand that turtles and tortoises can be quite expensive to maintain and is comfortable taking on this obligation. Applicants are also responsible for knowing local, state and federal laws concerning keeping chelonians. There may be fees involved.
Applicants complete the Adoption Application and Adoption Agreement and return them to us for screening. Please be specific and know which animal you desire to adopt after you've done your research. After a properly completed application is screened, an appointment is then arranged with the applicant for a yard inspection. Applicant agrees to not sell, trade, or give away the turtle or tortoise. If you can no longer keep it then it MUST be returned to About Turtle Time. We reserve the right to refuse any applicant. We do not adopt to persons under age 18.
Yard Inspection
About Turtle Time strives to place turtles and tortoises in homes which can replicate their native habitat as closely as possible. Each species has different needs. We do not adopt land turtles or tortoises to homes which can only provide an indoor habitat. Land turtles and tortoises may be kept indoors only on a short-term basis when they are sick, injured or in certain other situations. Yards are evaluated to insure a safe, escape-proof habitat. There are naturally different requirements when one adopts an aquatic turtle or a tortoise which we will cover with you as applicable.
Any household pet MUST be kept separate from the turtle at all times. No dogs, cats, etc can be left unattended in the same space as a turtle at any time. It doesn't matter how special, sweet and gentle your dog is. Turtles and tortoises are not chew toys. Bored and curious cats and ferrets are also known to cause extreme harm and even the death of turtles.
Once an application is approved and the yard inspection has been satisfactorily completed, you may pick up your turtle the same day or arrange to meet at a later time.
By adopting a turtle from About Turtle Time, you will be providing a safe, secure and healthy environment for a special and critical part of our ecosystem. We are happy for your choice and appreciate your willingness to do your part in the care and conservation of this turtles. The adoption fee of $15 or more depending on the species, due with your application, will include a tour of the Sanctuary for the applicant. Check with us for available species and fees.

When 16-year-old Gadiel Szleifer strode into the Feature Match Area sporting a "Taking Back Sunday" T-shirt, you could not have scripted a better finals. His opponent was 18-year-old Kenji Tsumura, and their battle went the full five games -- with Gadiel's back against the wall for the last two.
The T-shirt is for an alternative band, but it also told the story of Gadiel's alternative team of young North American Magic players looking to take back the glory of Sundays from the Dutch, French, and especially the Japanese. Gadiel has gone from rising star to superstar with his win this weekend. It was his second straight Constructed Top 8 finish, previously falling in the quarterfinals of Columbus.
Gadiel was the lone North American player on that Sunday, but he was joined by four other players from his home continent this time around. Americans Mark Herberholz, Ryan Cimera, and Jeff Novekoff were joined by Canadian Steve Wolfman -- proving that if you write about the demise of American Magic enough, you can light a fire under that segment of the community. Rounding out the Top 8 were Frenchman Olivier Ruel and Germany's Andre Mueller.
For more video clips, visit the Blog archives.
Coming into the tournament, people couldn't decide what was a greater danger, the sky falling or Umezawa's Jitte. This Top 8 should put that panic to rest. Only half the Top 8 players were wielding that particular hardware, and by the semifinals three of those players were outside looking for a draft. Sensei's Divining Top, on the other hand…
Two other stories this weekend were the skins style payout and the newly announced Player's Club. Of the 311 players in the tournament, only 40 of them left Philadelphia without a prize check.
The big winners were players who "leveled up" with their performances this weekend. Olivier Ruel and Julien Nuijten reached Level 6 -- more or less the financial equivalent of winning the Player of the Year race. They will now receive $2,000 appearance fees for Pro Tours, $500 for Grand Prix, and free travel and accommodations for every event from now through Worlds 2006.

As for the EPG data... whenever I add a new channel via scan, I often do not have EPG data until the next daily/nightly update refresh... Of course Dish doesn't have all sub-channel EPG data either, so it could be you have such a channel.

When I do a new OTA scan, I always turn the receiver off and back on. I was having channels not show up in the guide after I had scanned and saved them. Powering it off and then back on seemed to resolve that issue for me.

About 25 years ago I worked at a TV station. Like most other stations, we went off the air overnight, signed off with the National Anthem. One night, the duty engineer was in a hurry to leave and skipped the Anthem. A complaint by a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution was filed with the station.

Despite speculation about the slowed economy's impact on meetings, the majority of organizations are predicting growth for 2001, according to a recent survey by the Professional Convention Management Association. The survey also found that annual meeting attendance among PCMA's member organizations increased once again in 2000 for the eighth year running.
While technology, media and telecommunications organizations are taking a hit, the rest of the economy continues to grow: The U.S. gross domestic product increased by 2 percent in the first quarter of 2001. Since a recession is defined as two consecutive quarters of downsizing GDP, worries of a recession in the immediate future are unwarranted, says PCMA.
The biggest impact on meetings will be the increasing costs of fuel and the California energy crisis, which is causing hotels to institute energy surcharges ranging from $2 to $6 per room night, according to a PCMA press release. The high cost of energy is making a dent in California's $1.3 trillion economy, which represents one-eight of the U.S. GDP. The impact also is spilling over to other areas of the country: The energy surcharges have been implemented across North America.
"The increased costs of energy will, at least in the short term, have a negative impact on attendance at meetings," says PCMA Board Chairman James Youngblood. "Meeting managers are looking more and more to virtual meetings to avoid some travel costs." He added that meetings whose biggest growth area is in the international arena, such as medical meetings, are "less likely to be impacted by changes in the North American economy."

In this week's installment of The Practicing Photographer, Ben Long discusses a fun and challenging photographic subject: wildlife. Whether it's the birds in your backyard or the buffalo in a nature reserve, wildlife presents an array of photographic challenges—starting with the fact that you don't have a lot of control over your subject.
This lack of control can lead to an interesting phenomenon: forgetting how to be a photographer. As Ben explains, when you do see an interesting critter, maybe one you haven't seen before at close range, it's easy to get so caught up in the experience you neglect those aspects of photography you've spent so much time learning—like the need to really work a shot, to move around and experiment with different compositions, focal lengths, and exposure settings.

Okay, today is my official start date for BFL! I have lost all my baby weight from all 3 of my babies in the past following BFL. I love it and know from experience how well it works. I do have about 5 lbs left from my last baby that I need to get rid of. I am changing this challenge up a little bit. I am combining the IDEA of Jamie Eason's Livefit program with BFL. I am doing NO cardio for the first 4 weeks, to build up my muscle. But I am following the BFL weight lifting. I am in all my pre pregnancy clothes, I just want to have extremely defined muscles! I always struggle with the first week, and getting over my cravings. But I NEED to do this for myself. To prove I can go further than I ever have been. My lowest adult weight is 125 lbs. My goal is 120 lbs for this challenge! I am a size 6 right now, and my goal is a size 2. My lowered body is my biggest problem area, so I would LOOOVEE some great home workout ideas from people that will rock my lower body! Wish me luck!
Good Luck sarabeth0720!!! My husband and I are starting tomorrow! I love both BFL and Jamie Eason's livefit program. I think together they are definitely going to get you where you want to be.
Walking lunges is one of THE best exercises for lower body....thighs/hamstring/buttocks and it's easy to do sets with different dumbbells in your hands.
I too would like to be a size 2..well a size 2/4 any way. I too have 3 children and am down to my pre-pregnancy weight, but not my lowest adult weight and I would like to lose about 20 pounds to get back to that. Would love to help motivate one another if you are interested in an online buddy for support!
Good luck!
Absolutely! I need a support buddy, I am coming to the end of day one, and trying so hard not to go get something sweet! ha ha. I am so weak with sweets. But I am determined not to give up this time. Thanks for the lower body tips.
The end of the day is the hardest for me, that's when I crave something sweet as well...or anything for that matter! I'm very much looking forward to starting out tomorrow. My husband has never done anything like this with me so I'm really looking forward to him being by my side and the both of us transforming!
What time zone are you in??
I hope you evening went well and that you were able to pass on the sweets! Don't give up, take one day at a time....baby steps :)
I am in Illinois. I did good...didn't give in last night! Been good today too...except I feel bad I had a glass of Orange juice this morning...but I love my cup of orange juice in the morning. Surely, one cup can't mess up any results I want!! My email is firstname.lastname@example.com if you wanna email me there!

Summary of A Room with a View Summary of A Room with a View Reviews for A Room with a View An Excerpt from A Room with a View
This Edwardian social comedy explores love and prim propriety among an eccentric cast of characters assembled in an Italian pensione and in a corner of Surrey, England. A charming young English woman, Lucy Honeychurch, faints into the arms of a fellow Britisher when she witnesses a murder in a Florentine piazza. Attracted to this man, George Emerson--who is entirely unsuitable and whose father just may be a Socialist--Lucy is soon at war with the snobbery of her class and her own conflicting desires. Back in England she is courted by a more acceptable, if stifling, suitor, and soon realizes she must make a startling decision that will decide the course of her future: she is forced to choose between convention and passion. The enduring delight of this tale of romantic intrigue is rooted in Forster's colorful characters, including outrageous spinsters, pompous clergymen and outspoken patriots. Written in 1908, A Room With A View is one of E.M. Forster's earliest and most celebrated works.

While still very young she was given in marriage by her father, Anna, King of East Anglia, to a certain Tonbert, a subordinate prince, from whom she received as morning gift a tract of land locally known as the Isle of Ely. She never lived in wedlock with Tonbert, however, and for five years after his early death was left to foster her vocation to religion.
Her father then arranged for her a marriage of political convenience with Egfrid, son and heir to Oswy, King of Northumbria. From this second bridegroom, who is said to have been only fourteen years of age, she received certain lands at Hexham; through St. Wilfrid of York she gave these lands to found the minster of St. Andrew. St. Wilfrid was her friend and spiritual guide, but it was to him that Egfrid, on succeeding his father, appealed for the enforcement of his marital rights as against Etheldreda's religious vocation.
The bishop succeeded at first in persuading Egfrid to consent that Etheldreda should live for some time in peace as a sister of the Coldingham nunnery, founded by her aunt, St. Ebba, in what is now Berwickshire. But at last the imminent danger of being forcibly carried off by the king drove her to wander southwards, with only two women in attendance.
They made their way to Etheldreda's own estate of Ely, not, tradition said, without the interposition of miracles, and, on a spot hemmed in by morasses and the waters of the Ouse, the foundation of Ely Minster was begun.
This region was Etheldreda's native home, and her royal East Anglian relatives gave her the material means necessary for the execution of her holy design. St. Wilfrid had not yet returned from Rome, where he had obtained extraordinary privileges for her foundation from Benedict II, when she died of a plague which she herself, it is said, had circumstantially foretold. Her body was, throughout many succeeding centuries, an object of devout veneration in the famous church which grew up on her foundation.
One hand of the saint is
now venerated in the church of St. Etheldreda, Ely Place, London, which enjoys the distinction of
being the firstand at present (1909) the onlypre-Reformation church in Great Britain restored to
Catholic worship. Built in the thirteenth century as a private chapel attached to the town residence
of the Bishop of Ely, the structure of St. Etheldreda's passed through many vicissitudes during the
centuries following its desecration, until, in 1873-74, it was purchased by Father William Lockhart
and occupied by the Institute of Charity, of whose English mission Father Lockhart was then

Maureen and Mike Mansfield Library Digital Collections
Residence of the American Ambassador
Tokyo , October 7, 1977
Mr . Oh - -
Those who know me can tell you that I reserve
my speech-making for only the most important occasions .
Well, when a b~seball fan meets a Babe Ruth , a Hank
Aaron , or a Mr . Oh it ' s a pretty special occasion.
Those of us who never learned how to hit a
curve-ball , and collected more splinters on the bench
than hits at the plate , stand in awe of your skills .
Mike Mansfield Papers, Series 32, Box 1, Folder 8, Mansfield Library, University of Montana
But even more we admire the sense of personal
commi tment with which you have approached your profession.
Mr . Oh, you have a quiet dedication that would be welcome
on any team, whether baseball or politics or diplomacy .
Since arriving in Japan, I have come to realize
that maintaining friendly relations between Japan and
the U. S. depends on our ability to understand each other.
We have occasionally gotten our signals crossed;
sometimes the U. S. has thrown Japan a curve when Japan
has expected a fastball , and vice versa. But if we really
try to understand each other , we ' ll be capable of a perfect
game .
Or, to look at it from the other dugout , if we can
score often enough with the hit and run and sacrifice bunt ,
which require each man to read his signals properly, it
will take the pressure off the home run hitters , enabling
them to concentrate their efforts on the crucial situations .
With some things , there is complete understanding.
Mr. Oh , when your foot comes down and another baseball
has disappeared beyond the outfielders -- that is something
everyone can understand.
Mike Mansfield Papers, Series 32, Box 1, Folder 8, Mansfield Library, University of Montana
In fact, we have with us today a gentleman who has
enjoyed considerable success in the major leagues (with
the Angels , I believe) , and I think that Mr . Wright
would agree that when Mr. Oh hits all of a baseball ,
it ' s going to go out of any ballpark in any country .
Mr . Oh is not only a man among men , he. is a real
giant among "Giants ".
Finall y , I would like to present to you , Mr . Oh ,
a letter from President Carter , which will end my remarks
after only (three) minutes . Now there ' s one for the
record books!

Fan and custom figure creator Sillof has posted some outstanding Star Wars Steampunk figures that make us long for an official line of Victorian EU toys.
For those of you who need a primer on Steampunk the gist is that it's a subgenre of science fiction and fantasy that mixes steam, gears, and clunky elements with Victorian design elements to make a uniquely cool world of old meets futuristic. Jules Vern meets Blade Runner.
Sillof explains his inspiration for each Star Wars Steampunk custom figure — whether it's the steam-powered boiler-bot that is R2-D2 or the Prussian spiked helmet and gas-mask elements on Darth Vader.
My personal favorite is the Steampunk version of Chewbacca. He looks even more like an animal here, but also tougher than the usual Walking Carpet we all know and love. Plus he's wearing PANTS!!! *gasp* Of course, this could also be a shout-out to die-hard fans who all know Chewie almost got stuck wearing lederhosen in A New Hope if the 20th Century Fox executives had gotten their way.
Sillof writes:
Chewbacca always presents a challenge, as the classic look is large furry naked guy. I gave Chewbacca a more animalistic look with the more feline face and clawed hands and feet. As first mate on the airship I figured he would still have mechanic duties, as seen from his classic bandolier now serving as a tool bag. I gave him some pirate-ish clothing with loosing too much of the exposed fur look. His weapon is designed to be my clunkier version of a crossbow energy weapon. Chewie is finished off with the obligatory goggles to protect his eyes from the wind on the airship.
I can't wait to see what his next set of Star Wars Steampunk Figures will be. Fingers crossed that he transforms the Cantina Aliens. (Hint Hint)
Check out the entire set of Sillof's Star Wars Steampunk Figures here.
Also be sure to look at Sillof's other custom figures in the Star Wars Revisions Set that he describes as "hi-tech meets the Middle Ages, with accents of the Western cowboy & Eastern samurai influences of Star Wars."

I love the Lucky 8 Punch (Tatted Doily) because I feel it's a very versatile tool. My original thought was that you could use it it just on 12x12 paper, but after reading up on it and actually buying one I've used it on various sizes of paper and have gotten wonderful results. I also enjoy the fact that you can customize the punch-you can use both the boarder and corner punch, just the corner or just the boarder. I already ordered a second punch and in the future will probably get more.
I absolutely love this punch! I have ordered 3 different patterns of them and love them all. I like having different choices for my papers. It's different and that is what makes it great!! Thanks for a great product.
This is a great punch. I've used it several times now. The only drawback is the size of the punch. I have four now and storage creates problems.
LOVE it anyway!

Great for young catchers
Date : April 03, 2011
"Purchased this bag for my 12 year old daughter to keep all her catcher's equipment. Not only is there plenty of space for all her catcher's gear, batting helmet and bat, the multiple storage areas make it easy for her to keep track and find what she needs when she needs it. The bag itself is light enough not to add much weight to all the gear, and she can get it into and out of the car easily, and use the wheels once it's on the ground. She's been using it for 3 months now, with no visible signs of wear. With the capacity, there's no strain on the zippers, so they are holding up well. Very pleased with this purchase."

Posted on Friday, April 5, 2013 by fillups
Roger Ebert passed away on Thursday, April 4th, 2013.
Arguably, he was the most prominent and well known film critic in America. He was the first film critic to win the Pulitzer Prize (in 1975) while he was writing for the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper.
1975 was also the year he began filming the PBS movie review show Sneak Previews with rival Chicago film critic Gene Siskel. They continued reviewing movies together on television until Gene Siskel's death in 1999.
Roger Ebert's movie criticism is often as entertaining as the movies he's writing about. One of his most famous reviews was this, for the movie, North:
"I hated this movie. Hated hated hated hated hated this movie. Hated it. Hated every simpering stupid vacant audience-insulting moment of it. Hated the sensibility that thought anyone would like it. Hated the implied insult to the audience by its belief that anyone would be entertained by it"
This review inspired his book I Hated, Hated, Hated This Movie which is made up of hilarious reviews of really bad movies.
Some other great books are:
Forty years of the best of Roger Ebert's film reviews.
Over 100 selections on movies and about going to the movies. A wonderful compilation for anyone who loves of movies.
Including reviews of some of the greatest movies he has ever encountered, this book not only has wonderful commentary but is a great viewing guide if you're looking for a couple of wonderful movies to check out.
Ebert's second volume of poorly reviewed films. These movies are a lot more fun to read about than to actually watch.
Follows his life from its beginnings through his career as a screenwriter, then critic, and finally to his battle against thyroid cancer.

21 February 2014
Have been buying these for months but the carrots are now tasteless and I usually get 1 or 2 per bag that are mouldy. Very poor quality and won't buy again
16 February 2014
A bit tasteless
I've only purchased and tried one batch of these but they're super bland. Quite tasteless and I won't be trying them again. This is the kind of stuff available at my local supermarket, I shop through Ocado to try to get better quality than I have readily available so it defeats the purpose in this case.

Some of these were worse than our week old carrots with black marks on them like old carrots. Most were ok though so might work out the same price as others

5. Rex Grossman — .612. He had one great winning year, going 13-3 in the 2006 Super Bowl season.
6. Jay Cutler — .590. He was supposed to take the Bears to the next level. We're waiting.
7. Jim Miller — .576. He won 15 games in 26 starts for the Bears, going 11-2 in 2001, but he started only one other game for seven other teams in a 12-year career.
8. Rudy Bukich — .566. In 1965, Bukich was the third-leading passer in the NFL with a 93.7 rating, and he led the Bears to a 9-3 record as a starter (with a little help from two rookies named Sayers and Butkus).
9. Billy Wade — .551. He went 27-20-2 as a starter from 1961-66 after seven seasons with the Rams, and all he did was break up the Packers' NFL championship string with an 11-1-2 mark in 1963. He also led the league with a 93.7 rating in 1961. Oh, one other thing: He came out of Vanderbilt.
10. Jim Harbaugh — .538. His record as the Bears' starter was decent, but his record as the 49ers' coach is outstanding (.789).
Front office chess
Pursuing Grant
You may have heard the Bears brought in former Packers running back Ryan Grant for a workout last week. But they did more than work him out. They also offered him a contract, according to league sources.
Their timing was bad, though. The Redskins also wanted Grant, and they offered him a deal before Grant's workout with the Bears in hope he would leave Chicago immediately. Grant went through the workout and was leaning toward the Bears' offer.
But as he was on his way to take a physical exam for the Bears, he decided to take the Redskins' deal.
Why? Whereas the Bears would give him only the veteran minimum of $925,000, the Redskins offered slightly more, plus playing-time incentives. And Grant figured he had a better chance of playing for them with Roy Helu on injured reserve and their other backs not as skilled as Matt Forte.
Why did the Bears want Grant? He could have been an upgrade over Armando Allen and Kahlil Bell. With the Bears, he likely would have been the third back.

March 19, 2013
It has been more than a week since someone last reported seeing a service dog missing in Albemarle County. Those looking for the dog say they are growing frustrated.
With no new leads to work with, trainers from Service Dogs by Warren Retrievers retraced their steps Tuesday afternoon, combing the area Beta, a female black lab, apparently ran away.
"We start here every day and go from here and search the surrounding areas and expand it out, but this is pretty much where we are, and it's frustrating," said lead trainer Cheri Campbell.
The organization says the trainer, who no longer works for them, says she lost the 45-pound black lab off Steubin Lane in the Key West neighborhood on March 9. The diabetic alert dog was unleashed when it was spooked by horses and took off.
Campbell says they will continue to scour the area, but, without any more information, they don't know where to look next.
"We're doing everything we know to do, and that's where we're at right now, hoping for somebody to say, 'Hey, I think I saw your dog,' and of course we'll go running, we'll flood the area," said Campbell. "But right now, with there being no sightings, we can only continue to flood the area she was last seen in."
Beta monitors the blood sugar levels of an 11-year-old girl in Texas. The dog was brought back to central Virginia for additional training when she disappeared.
Beta has an AVID microchip. She might be wearing a bright green service vest with dog tags.
Anyone with more information is asked to call Albemarle County Police at 434-296-5807.

Handsome, well-made shirt - more black in the red than pictured, with a black nap when viewing the folds. So the overall effect is more dull. If you like muted tones, give it a try.

Quality Shirt
This is a quality shirt, very well made. The color is darker than the catalog or net poto shows. The surprise for me was the taper of this shirt. On most TTA shirts I wear an XL. I had to send this back because the taper would have fit the body I had when I was younger, not the older adult size I am now The armpit seam was very small and the taper on the arms wasn't big enough for my forearms. I would never be able to roll up the sleeves because my arms were too big. I returned the shirt for a larger size.

New Starbucks drive-thru menu omits tall size drinks and prices
31 Aug
I snapped a photo with my cell phone camera and tweeted it via Posterous while I waited in the drive-thru line for my grande latte. I knew they hadn't eliminated the tall size from the menu because, admittedly, I ordered a tall latte the day before INSIDE the Starbucks. So why did Starbucks omit the tall size from their latest drive-thru menu design?
I asked the woman who handed me my drink and she said she was unaware of the change and thanked me for telling her. I asked @Starbucks via Twitter and as of this writing have yet to receive a response.
But I can't help but believe it's because Starbucks wants to encourage drive-thru patrons to order a larger, more expensive coffee concoction.
In fact, the new menu omits a less expensive Starbucks staples altogether — plain hot Mochas. Instead, the newly-designed menu emphasizes the Mocha's more expensive sugary sisters: The Caramel Macchiato and the seasonal Toffee Mocha. You can still order a tall drink via the Starbucks drive-thru. The new menu offers a concession with the lines: "Looking for something else? Please ask us."
For some reason, this menu change really started to grate on my nerves. So on my lunch break, I went back and snapped some better photos of the menu. I also went inside to inquire about the change. An employee told me the change was made Saturday night. The employee worked the drive-thru Sunday morning and said customers kept asking: "Can I still order a tall drink?" The employee drove around back at the end of the Sunday shift to look at the sign and noticed it was changed.
It has been suggested that Starbucks may have omitted the "tall" size and pricing from the new drive-thru menu to make more room for the photos of the drinks. Indeed, the previous menu did not feature photography of every drink. However, there is plenty of room on this new layout to include one more listing for the small ahem, excuse me, tall size.
I totally support local coffee shops whenever I can. The only reason I go to this Starbucks is because it is the only coffee shop on the way to work. Most weekdays I brew my own coffee at home, but I do splurge on Starbucks at least once a week.
How can I be so worked up over a design change like this when there are wars being fought and oil-soaked beaches to clean up? Well, it just seems shady to me. It seems like Starbucks is trying to encourage people to order bigger drinks, which come with a higher price tag and calorie count. And I don't think it's fair for this massive coffee chain to make a change like this without someone pointing it out. So thank you for letting me get this off my chest and off my camera.
The Consumerist picked up my post!
I was just contacted by editors at The Consumerist who tell me Starbucks will be altering its menu to include tall sizes again! Since my blog post, the story has received national media attention, including articles from MSNBC, USA Today and ChicagoBreakingNews.com.

Way for Hostess to live again
The response to the coming end of the company that makes Wonder Bread, Twinkies and other Hostess snacks has provided great amusement and clarity. For decades, nutritionists have scorned the beloved Twinkie as an example of all that's wrong with the American diet. The Twinkie has become the butt of news reports about the so-called obesity epidemic and the poster child of what the food police consider lethal snacks that pleasure the palate with empty calories.
The national outrage, sadness and nostalgia sparked by Interstate Bakeries Inc.'s quitting the business rather than caving to the bankrupting demands of its unions have reached bizarre heights. Inviting the wrath of Sen. Dick "I Can't Seem to Stop Being Attorney General" Blumenthal, profiteers are offering boxes of the "Most Expensive Twinkies on Earth" on eBay for a mere $20 million, though the same 10-Twinkie pack also may be had for a mere $50.

" Teamster workers took over $150 per week in concessions to keep the company working. you are also wrong when you said another person driving a separate truck stocked the shelves for us. you were correct when you said that a wonder employee could not deliver cake and a cake employee could not deliver bread. I always thought that made no sense. The facts are we gave back close to $8000 per year to save our jobs but the bakers would not. "

The administration's lonQ' delo.y In
focuslnQ' on ener8'Y Issues Ia ret1ected not
only In the fact that Ita leilalaUve program

Congress convened, but also In the makeup
of the proQ'ram Itself. While lncludlnQ'

allocation authority and It neQ'lected
entirely such maJor Issues as enera7 conservation
and research and development.
Sometimes, It Is not entirely clear Just
what the adminlatratlon's proQ'ram Is.
Only this week, admlnlstratlon ofllclala
appeared before the Interior Committee
and withdrew support for lea1Blatlon proposed
by the administration to terminate
certain lea.sea in the Santa Barbara
channel and place the area covered by
these leases in a national energy reserve.
Yet this Is leaislatlon that the President
urged Congreee to enact even as late a.s
last spring.
~ energy proQ'rana being developed
by Congreee Is, on the other hand, more
comprehensive and more balanced between
lonQ'-term and short-term considerations.
Th1a week, Congrees has already completed
actlon on two maJor enerQ'y bll.18,
the ll81slatlon to authorize the construction
ot the trans-Alaska pipeline and to
authorize the Implementation ot a mandatory
allocation program for crude oU
and petroleum products.
I mltrht point out, Mr. President, that
both theee bll.18 represent Initiatives by
the Congreu, The trans-Alaska pipeline
bill waa developed by the Interior Committee,
workinQ' with the executive
branch, after the court ot appeals held
that the Secretary of the Interior had
exceeded his authority in Q'rantinQ' a
right-of-way for the pipeline. The fuels
alloeatlon bill, which I introduced la.st
April, was opposed by the administration
from the outset.
Tbe Senate's t1rst energy bUl was
Paaaed on May 10, 1973. This was Senator
Hou.:mos' proposal to create a CouncU
on Energy Polley in the Executive
Oftlce of the Prellldent.
The Senate has also pa.saed two Important
bll.18 which provide the standards
and Institutional mechan1sma tor reconclllnc
our energy and environmental
needs. I refer to the National Land Use
Policy Act-passed on Jtme 21, 1973-
and the National Surface Mining and
Reclamation Act-passed on October 9,
1973. .

Another; congressional Initiative has
been in the critical t1eld of energy research
and development. When I introduced
legislation authorizing a massive
10-year, $20 b1lllon energy R. '41 D. prorram
on March 19, 1973-wlth the cosponsorship
of 27 Senators-the adminIstration
turned a deaf ear. But as the
serious nature of our energy situation
became more apparent the administration's
attitude has changed. The President
Is now pubU.Cly committed to the
kind of program we proposed last spring.
But the question still remains whether
the administration will commit the funds
to make a real R. & D. effort. At this
moment, the Ofllce of Management and
Budget has Impounded more than $20
m1111on In funds tor energy research and
The adm1nJstrat1on's record on development.
of our geothermal steam resource
Is cause tor concern about the strength
ot Its commitment to' energy research
and development. The fact 1s that conQ'rees
in 1970 authorized leasing of the
public lands for development of geothermal
steam. As of today, the adminIstration
has yet to promulgate the regulations
that would permit public lands
to be leased for this purpose. Under the
determined leadership of Senators BIBLE
and CHtntcH, the Interior Committee has
been pushing hard to accelerate geothermal
development. But the administration
has opposed leQ'1slat1on pending before
the Interior Committee to speed
commercial development of geothenna.l
enerQ'Y through a program of loan guarantees.
And It has imPOunded the additional
$7 m1illon appropriated by Congrey
e&rtier this year for geothermal development.
Another resea.rch area where Congress
haa CCllllll.atentJy taken the leadership Is
eo&l reeeareh. As a member of the Kpproprlationa
Committee, Senator BYRD of
West Vfratnla haa lonQ' worked tor funds

In thla yea.r alone, he succeeded in adding
almoet $40 m1111on to the adm1n1strat1on

eo&l ps11lcatlon, coal liquefaction and
1~rovementa in mining technolQiY.
I:NDGY OONIIDVATION LJ:OI8LATlON
It 1a worth noting, Mr. President, that
the admtnlstratlon has also opposed the
National Fuels and Energy Conservation
Act, introduced on July 13, 1973, reported
by the committee and now pending on
the Senate Calendar with action planned
in the Immediate future. nus legislation,
which lays the foundation for a
serious energy conservation elfort, Is cosponsored
by 35 Senators.
Despite the critical Importance of efforts
to reduce energy demand, the adm1n1etration
ha& never submitted any
lea:lslatlon on th1s subject to the congress.
It baa not only oppoeed my bill,
but also opposed major bUs on thla subject
developed by the Commerce Committee.
In a letter dated July 31, 1973,
Aaalstant Secretary of the Interior
Wakefteld OPPOsed my bill on the ground
that adequate aUth011ty for a conservation
prorrana already exists. He also arQ'Ued
that the bill "calla for a traction-ated
and less well organized approach to ,
the vital matter of energy- conserva.tlon
than the current Federal program."
The effectiveness of the Federal program
Is, quite frankly, still very much in
doubt a.s the need for serious conservation
efforts grows greater than ever.
The administration has also opposed
legislation whih I Introduced on April 16,
1973, to eetabllsh a national strategic
petroleum reserve In order to minimize
the Impact of disruption of our oil 1mports.
Although the administration supports
the concept ot such a reserve and
agrees that legislation Is neceMary, It
opposed my bill and has yet to submit Its
own legislation on this subJect.
In a letter dated October 26, 1973, the
Ofllce of Management and Budget endorsed
the Interior Del)artment•s opposition
to the bill on the grounds that creation
of the reserves system. called for in
the bill "would be extremely costly and
Is considered unnecesSary."
J:MJ:ROI:NCT LI:OUILATtON
Finally, Mr. President, the record
should be clear as to legislation dealing
with the present energy emergency. I
Introduced the National Emergency Petroleum
Act, to provide the President
with adequate authority to deal with
this crisis, on October 18. At that time, It
was obvious that a critical energy situation
was developing as a result of the
Arab oil embargo. Yet It wa.s 2 weeka
after that before the adminl.stration was
able to respond with tentative emergency
proposals of Ita own. Again, congres.
lllonal Initiative wa.s required to stimulate
adm1n1stratlon action.
I want to emphasize that the adminIstration
had discretionary authority
under the Defense Production Act, the
Economic Stabilization Act, and other
statutes to make contingency plB!J4, to
prepare for rationing, and to allocate
scarce fuels. But It hu never been willIng
to face up to the re&lltiel of the situation.
Congress, at every tum, has had to
force the adm1nl..strat1on to act, either by
ProP081nQ', enacting, or threatening to
enact appropriate legislation.
Let me repeat, Mr. President, that the
unprecedented efforts of this Congreee
on energy matters have been on a bipartisan
basis. I wish to acknowledge, in particular,
the great contribution of Senator
FANNIN and his Republican colleagues
on the Interior Committee. Senators
of both parties have worked long
and hard on these Issues. I am confident
that we are developing a legislative program
that wlll .enable the Federal Government
to deal with our critical energy
problema and serve a.s a b&s1a fot longterm
natlolijll eneru policy.
Mr. President, I ask •mantmous coosent
that there be included to ~e Rzcou at
th1e point a l1at of the energy related b11la
acted upon or pending before the Interior
COmmittee in the preaent Bell81on
of Congress.
I also ask tmanlmous consent that the
full text ot my lttter to ~e President of
June 13, 1972, and my speech to the Coal
Mining Institute of December 7, 1972, be
tncluded 1n the Rllcoan.

- Overall Duration On a long ride, it's sometimes good to have a little break in the middle, or maybe a catch up at the beginning or end to keep it sociable. This means that the overall ride duration may be longer than the actual cycling time.
- 1 hours 30 mins (1 hours 0 mins cycling)
Breeze Bike Rides in Brighton
Blow away the cobwebs with this family friendly ride along Hove seafront. Using the Sustrans National Route 2, we'll use mainly seafront cycle paths to get from the Peace Statue at the border between Brighton and Hove to Carat's cafe in Southwick (and then back again after some refreshments!).
The route is all flat, but the wind can make cycling in one direction a bit harder than the other; the wind usually blows in the direction that makes returning to Hove from Southwick much easier, thankfully.
Feel free to bring your children along (but note that under 16s must wear a cycling helmet to join in).
Wearing a helmet for adults is also advisable; if you don't have one please do not to worry you can still take part. If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.
It's a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack (though we will be stopping at Carat's cafe for cake and drink). Dress appropriately for the weather: in cool weather it's good to wear lots of thin layers, so you can add/remove them as needed; a rain jacket is a good idea too!
We really welcome newcomers to our rides; we will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind.
Look forward to seeing you there.
